Example:
1 2 | echo link_tag('css/mystyles.css');// gives <link href="http://site.com/css/mystyles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> |
Further examples:
1 2 3 4 5 | echo link_tag('favicon.ico', 'shortcut icon', 'image/ico');// <link href="http://site.com/favicon.ico" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/ico" />echo link_tag('feed', 'alternate', 'application/rss+xml', 'My RSS Feed');// <link href="http://site.com/feed" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="My RSS Feed" /> |
